Apple launches 128GB iPad tablet


Apple has launched a new version of its iPad tablet with double the memory space of its current largest model.
The beefier 128GB fourth generation iPad will go on sale online and from Apple stores on Monday, with more storage space for users' music, games and apps.
The most expensive version with wifi and 3G mobile connectivity will have a recommended retail price (RRP) of £739, just £110 cheaper than Apple's MacBook Air laptop computer.
The cheapest model with the 128GB memory launched by the company at its headquarters in Cupertino, California, will have a RRP of £639.

The upgrade to the fourth generation iPad, which previously stopped at the 64GB version, comes after Microsoft launched its Surface Pro tablet with a 128GB memory.
Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice-president of worldwide marketing, said: "With more than 120 million iPads sold, it's clear that customers around the world love their iPads, and everyday they are finding more great reasons to work, learn and play on their iPads rather than their old PCs."
The new version include a 9.7-inch Retina display and an HD FaceTime camera.
